The Chicago Blackhawks might not want to have Brent Seabrook play every night next season. The team might be better off letting Seabrook take on the role of a seventh defenseman, but it is up to Seabrook to earn his role at the end of the day.
Brent Seabrook had operations on his hips and one of his shoulders after getting healthy scratched for a few games back in December. In April, Seabrook was feeling great, and by the time the NHL got back together for a little training camp before the bubble, Seabrook almost ended up with the team.
